Animal Collective | Mon 7 Nov

With the band’s first record in more than half a decade, Time Skiffs, coming in February, the wildly unique Animal Collective will showcase it to the people of Manchester later this year.

The new album is described as a collection of ‘love letters, distress signals, en plein air observations and relaxation hymns’—a reflection of the group entering parenthood and adult worry, though with all the synonymous sense of exploratory wonder fans have come to expect of the collective.
